Pearl Abyss' open-world action-adventure game, Crimson Desert, has surpassed 6 million copies in global sales.
On June 11, Pearl Abyss announced the milestone through its official social media channels, expressing gratitude to players for experiencing the world in their own ways.
Crimson Desert sold 2 million copies on its first day and exceeded 5 million copies within a month of its release. After 83 days, it reached the 6 million mark, continuing to set remarkable sales records in the history of Korean console gaming.
User engagement has remained stable since the game's launch. Forbes noted that Crimson Desert has maintained a high user retention rate, contrasting with the typical rapid decline in sales seen in single-player open-world games.
Pearl Abyss also revealed plans for a Q3 update and downloadable content (DLC) development, aiming for ongoing content expansion to sustain long-term success.
Huh Jin-young, CEO of Pearl Abyss, stated, "Despite being a new intellectual property (IP), Crimson Desert has achieved significant success in the global market. I sincerely thank players worldwide and will continue to pursue new challenges to provide enjoyable and high-quality experiences."
